Owner data does not fully agree across sources.
EIA typically reports the operating utility, while GEM resolves to the financial owner or parent corporation. Both can be correct.

The Marshall Solar Energy Project is a 62.3 MW solar photovoltaic power plant located in Lyon County, Minnesota. The plant began operating in 2017 and has one generator. It is owned and operated by Marshall Solar Energy Project, a subsidiary of NextEra Energy. The plant's primary fuel source is the sun, and it utilizes fixed-tilt solar tracking technology. Marshall Solar Energy Project is interconnected to the Midcontinent Independent Transmission System Operator, Inc. (MISO) balancing authority and resides within the MRO NERC region. It is ranked as the 5th largest solar plant in Minnesota out of 540, and 1039th nationally out of 7108.
In its most recent year of operation, the Marshall Solar Energy Project generated 96,573 MWh of electricity, resulting in a capacity factor of 17.7%. Financial data indicates that the plant has a power purchase agreement (PPA) price of $68.42 per MWh, according to data from lbnl_solar. The plant has been the subject of 10 news articles, with 7 focused on industry trends and 3 related to deals.

No wholesale contracts disclosed in FERC EQR for this plant.
FERC EQR captures bilateral wholesale energy + capacity contracts ≥$1M/yr filed quarterly by jurisdictional sellers — covers renewable PPAs, thermal energy sales agreements, capacity contracts, and tolling agreements alike. Many plants don't appear: regulated-utility output flows to ratepayers via cost-of-service rather than bilateral contracts; small projects fall below the filing threshold; tax-equity-financed renewables route offtake to investors not utilities; merchant plants sell into ISO clearing markets without bilateral contracts. News-extracted buyer facts (below) may surface contracts disclosed only through announcements.
